The atmosphere in the room instantly turned cold.
As if she didn't feel it, Madame Hee reprimanded him with a cold face: "You are already 15 years old, and now you are even set to get married.
It's not like being a girl, where you can play around willfully and your family will pamper you.
He was about to get married soon. Don't tell me that you're still planning to make people laugh when you get to your in-laws' home?
You wish everyone knew that the little girl that I raised with my Bai Family doesn't know the rules like this? "
"Mother …" Madame Lin's face turned pale at these words, and she couldn't help but advise.
Madame Hee glanced at her indifferently. "I said that the three girls didn't understand the rules. "As a daughter-in-law, how can you just randomly interrupt when Granny is speaking?"
Madame Lin's eyes immediately reddened when she was scolded like this by Madame Hee in front of everyone.
A trace of coldness flashed past Bai Zheng's eyes, but she maintained a look of suffering, and walked forward and comforted Madame Lin in a soft voice.
Seeing how the Madame Hee was taunting them and not letting them go, while Bai Zheng was just hanging her head and not making a sound, without saying anything, she had a plan in her heart.
It looks like this second Bai Family faction is indeed unfavoured.
Madame Hee was even more annoyed by her own granddaughter, as if she was looking for trouble.
Wen King's Consort understood in his heart, and laughed out loud.
"Old Madam Bai, those words of yours were said in front of all of us today, so it's natural that you would say it. However, you must lower your voice a bit in the future. Don't let anyone else hear it."
In the end, Third Miss of Bai Family has already won over Ayuan. If he sees you call his lovely wife like this, even if he doesn't show it on the surface, it would be hard for him to not blame you in his heart. "
Hearing Feng Linyuan's name, Madame Hee's face stiffened for a moment.
Old Madam Zhou who was interrupted laughed. "That's right, I've heard that you've forgotten your mother even though you're already married. How about you, your wife's grandmother? In the end, the fate of the Third Miss of Bai Family is good. The Dingyuan Marquis is a kindhearted and kind person, and there are no mother-in-law or sister-in-law within the house of the Marquis.
Several of the ladies in the hall saw this and agreed.
"That's right, that's right. Unlike when we just married, we follow the rules and be cautious every day, afraid that doing something wrong will make Granny unhappy. There's no such trouble in Mansion of Dingyuan Marquis."
"If the Third Miss of Bai Family marries, it would be the only one in the house of the Marquis. Look at the betrothal gift list that our Marquis gave us, he truly values Third Miss from the bottom of his heart, Third Miss will definitely not suffer. "
"I see that the Third Miss is knowledgeable, how can it compare to Old Madam Bai's words. The tutoring from Bai Mansion has always been good, so there was no need to worry Old Madam Bai. "Today, I was just shy. It's understandable that I have stayed in my room for a long time."
Bai Zheng lowered her head, her elegant and beautiful face, at the right time, being dyed with a trace of light red.
As for Madame Hee, she choked on everyone's words to the point that her face turned completely black, but it was not good to erupt, so she could only endure it.
"Good child, come over here and let me have a look." The Wen King Concubine warmly waved Bai Zheng over, her turbid eyes filled with a kind smile.
Bai Zheng obediently stepped forward, "Royal Consort."
Wen King Fei took her hand, looked left and right, then laughed: "Old Madam Bai is truly fortunate, Third Miss is truly a girl that is loved by many. No wonder that child Ayuan refused to go out for many years, and specifically invited my old man to propose marriage."
Bai Zheng blushed and laughed softly: "Wen King has never cared about the affairs of the world, for so many years, yet today, things are so tiring for the sake of Zheng, Zheng is truly …"
Seeing that, the Wen King Concubine and Old Mistress Zhou looked at each other and nodded secretly.
When they were in a difficult situation, they didn't cry or make a ruckus. When they faced their elders, they were dignified and proper. They didn't have the capricious attitude of a normal girl.
This kind of woman could really hold up the Mansion of Dingyuan Marquis.
Thinking about it, the smile on Wen King's Consort's face grew even wider, and he patted Bai Zheng's hands: "My family's old man has nothing better to do anyway, Ayuan's wedding is what we're most worried about. Now it was our wish. "Ah, in the future, you two will be a family. You must live a good life …"
Just as Bai Zheng smiled shyly in response, the servant's voice of notification came from outside the door.
"Dingyuan Marquis has arrived."
Bai Zheng could not help but secretly heave a sigh of relief.
He was finally free.
"In the past, this old man was engaged to your Senior Marquis, but who would have thought that I would give birth to a little girl. However, you can be considered half a relative of mine. For you, a hard trip is nothing." Before anyone could enter, Old Duke Zhou's loud laughter could be heard.
Bai Zheng couldn't help but smile.
The voice was clear and sonorous, and one could tell that the owner of the voice must have been a soldier who had run across the battlefield. It gave one a favorable impression of him.
"Then this trip will all depend on the Old Duke and Uncle Wen King." Feng Linyuan's voice was light and carried a warm smile.
With that, Bai Yinan led them in.
Bai Zheng raised her head and looked over, only to see two cranes and white beards standing beside Feng Linyuan, two old men who were close to the age of one year old, both of them with high spirits, their auras were extremely powerful.
The leader looked around, and his gaze landed on Bai Zheng.
Bai Zheng walked forward and bent her knees as she paid her respects: "Bai Zheng greets the Wen King, and Old Duke Zhou."
Wen King sized her up. Seeing that she had lowered her head with a smile, looking calm and graceful, he laughed and nodded: "She's a good girl.
Feng Linyuan glanced at Bai Zheng and smiled without saying a word.
After helping Bai Zheng up, the Wen King walked to the front of the Madame Hee while stroking his white beard: "Old Madam Bai, congratulations! Today, I was hired by Marquis Dingyuan to marry to the Third Miss of Bai Family. I have to trouble the White Madame to take a look at the betrothal gift list. If there's anything missing, just say it, this king will immediately urge the Ayuan to come forward. "
Madame Hee had no interest to begin with, she only took a rough look at the betrothal gift list and felt that it looked very long. Now that the Wen King had asked him a question, he revealed a smile and said.
"This old one is truly unworthy of Your Highness' words. "My family's three mischievous maidservants aren't worthy of the marquis' painstaking effort. With so many betrothal gifts, it really is a blessing for this girl."
When the Wen King heard this, he could not help but turn his head and look Old Duke Zhou in the eye.
Madame Hee's words sounded humble on the surface, but the meaning behind them was full of contempt for Bai Zheng. Even to the point of the last sentence, accepting these betrothal gifts was a blessing?
It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a curse.
"Old Mistress Bai thinks that Zheng does not deserve my betrothal gift, who can?" Feng Linyuan said calmly.
Madame Hee smiled slightly: "Of course it's those girls with good character and looks. However, I am already old and haven't been out for a long time. I don't know much about the people on the outside and am afraid I won't be able to answer your question in a short time. "
"Madame Bai is right." Feng Linyuan nodded.
"Ayuan?" Madame Zhou frowned, she was just about to reprimand him for being rude to Madame Hee in front of everyone, but then she heard Feng Linyuan's cold voice.
"Old Madam Bai is indeed old. It's hard to avoid being blind."
